Here's something to show Zeus...give him something to strive for mate. Very Happy

Zeus, a giant Belgian Draft horse. He is a shocking 21.5 hands-- or 7 feet, 2 inches -- tall and weighs 3,100 pounds.

I've ridden horse that were 16 hands+, but I can't even imagine being on top of this big guy...he is massive.

Yeah but notice that he's on a hill and the guy holding him is on the down side of the hill. It is a bit of photo trickery but he's huge for sure, it'd probably hurt to bare-back ride him, he's so wide, I'd say he on the fat side too. I've seen them walker trained and it's really a sight.

That big boy is not a bit fat. That's just lots of muscle and bone.

This is about as big as I can make Zeus look. 14.2 hands and around 900 lbs.

Bushys pony is the one you want for a fun trail ride for sure. That looks like a fine animal.

Sadly, I was researching Zeus, looking for more info and found out he died in 2013.

Bushy..if his coat was any shinier your saddle would surely slide right off....you sure must be feeding him right.

He was certainly a beautiful horse Dallan. He looks like a gentle giant. It's a real shame they lost him as early as they did.

Thanks mate.
